“Besides eating “ great line about Fatso Goring!
I love watching your videos. I've seen some more than once lol.
Thanks so much for your infinite contributions and giving so much class to this hobby.
This video is by far the best
Well done as usual Sir. That minerval owl is indeed indicative of wisdom & probably points to a member of the Thule society or another of the mystery schools.
What a pleasure it is to watch and learn from a master collector.
Preserving history.
Thank you
What a great seminar on my favorite subject. Tom always teaches you something new and his knowledge and sharing are much appreciated,,,he exemplilfies the best in our hobby
Sorry for the SD quality, guys. The HD version is talking f o r e v e r to process. Hopefully RUclips will have the higher resolutions complete before the complete collapse of society.
These presentations and seminars are extremely informative! A great service to the collector community.
You are the absolute go to guy for me on anything collecting memorabilia sir. Excellent video
´Thanks agai mr. Wittmann... do more videos....love em
Do you need an apprentice? Ha
I stumbled onto your channel because I’m a bit of a huge WWII buff. I have hundreds of hours of documentaries and too many books to count. I’m American through and through but German history fascinates me. Your knowledge on these things are unmatched. At 36 years of age I’m extremely jealous of your collection and knowledge.
The shooting competition and after party sounds fun
Once again the quality and variety of your fantastic collection is amazing. It's so great to have you back after going through the physical hell that we've discussed that those procedures bring in our emails. Your looking very trim but I think I better send you some good Italian cooking to keep you at fighting weight and so you continue to educate us on even more beautiful German artifacts. Now that we've all had the opportunity to see just a sample of your, best of the bes vast collection and beautiful home, I believe that heaven may be a disappointment in comparison. Continued improvement from your surgery and slow down with the cigars. I know you gotta have them but maybe a few less each day keeps the Dr away. Sincerely, Gene DeBlasio _
Thankyou, Herr Wittmann for showing your exquisite collection, and for your valuable expertise sir. Excellent presentations. Best regards to you and family. Kevin Phoenix

Love your videos!!!! Thanks again for all the information!!
Have been looking forward to this one. Hope you are continuing to feel better.
Great video. Very informative. It’s always tricky looking at hunting / forestry cutlass’ and not knowing if they’ve been “messed with”. Thanks!
Great videos as always the shotgun is a work of art 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
As allways good Heavy Metal 🤘🏻. To this day there is a brewery that makes German beer in China from those Colonial days
Fantastic , keep the videos coming Tom.
Awesome explanation Mr Wittmann ... didn't know about these types. Congratulations.
Well done and usual. Thanks.
It's great, greats from the netherlands
Спасибо из Курска, Россия. Узнал от Алексея о Ваших мега запасах кортиков и кинжалов Томас! Впечатлен!
That sample sword is incredible! Thanks for sharimg!
Mega nice
Have you ever come across a falconry related dagger Goering was a keen falconer and his falconer was Renz Waller .
Just finished watching this, and am always in awe of Mr Wittmann’s fantastic collection! Especially the cutlass dedicated to “Paul”....
Thank you for sharing your knowledge sir, but I do have a couple of specific questions about shooting cutlasses which I’m emailing to you.
Rarity of photos of these in use, and gilded examples....
Measure the lenght of the boar tusk on the cigar cutter, that one looks like it can be a very high medal value on it.
I love this man.
Took a screenshot of Herr Wittmann in his hunting outfit.
Thankyou from Oz for your most informative seminars.
Should like to hear something about "University Daggers"
issued to teachers of the Reichs world view.
Здоровья коллекционерам нашей большой планеты и привет всем из маленькой Украины ! Мистер Томас видео просто замечательно . Получил большое удовольствие от просмотра . Продолжайте дальше приносить всем радость от общения с Вами , с самыми лучшими дружескими пожеланиями из Киева , Константин .
Greetings Mr. Wittmann, thank you for posting very informative now I might have to acquire a nifty hunting or forestry dagger, you have lost some weight and you look great, hope to see you and other collectors in November OVMS if its still scheduled. All the best, Jeffery Richards collector
As always, thank you. It looks like OVMS is in fact a go for November.
Hi Tom, as always very informative and well done. I was looking for one of those Luftwaffe Forestry bayonets (or whatever they are calling them this week) in the video. I may have to add one of those Hirschfangers to the collection! Keep up the good work and I hope to see you soon in Allentown.
Ein Hirschfänger/ zwei Hirschfänger
I really really love these lectures, but the camerawork on them is unfortunately quite subpar. A lot of the details especially on the blades can't be seen due to them being out of focus. I originally thought I wouldn't say anything, that it would surely get better with more experience, but this is now the tenth lecture on daggers etc. I've watched and the same issues are still continuing.
In any case, I'm very grateful to Tom and the cameraman for taking the time to make these wonderful lectures to all of, thank you from the bottom of my heart for that! If you could just fix the out of focus issues, these would be pretty much perfect. :)
Долгожданное видео люблю смотреть
Hi from Ukraine!
Up to the 1840s Hirschfänger had been only allowed for noblemen, professional hunters and forrest offiicials ( Förster/ Forstbeamte), most Förster had been gouvernement officals, few, like professional hunters. Perhaps as a result of the 1848 revolution attempt , every hunter could carry a Hirschfänger, the officials now got regulated/ standardized modells. Also persons/ organisations which had few to do with hunting, carried it sometimes. The Hirschfänger was common up to the 1930s, as sign of being a trained hunter, for the final stab/ Fangstoß of wounded animals and as selfdefence weapon, pistolls had been uncommon formerly. Today the Hirschfänger is more a ceremonial weapon, but they are still produced. The small knife which is called skinner in this video, is a Nicker ( Genick- neck) it is the traditional german hunters knife, formerly, especially in southern Germany, this knifes had also been carried by civilians in a small pocket in the right side oft the Lederhose. In wwl many Nicker had been produced as trench knife. The next knife had been the Standhauer, a kind of machete / short sword. This had been more a tool than a knife for the final stab. A smaller version of the Standhauer is the Waidblatt, which is still used, but in decline. And finaly there is the boar spear/ Saufeder , still produced in traditional style and modern style. For the reason , that there is a boar problem in Germany, the Saufeder has a small level Comeback.
Im sorry to break it to you Tom, but the engraving on the scabbard at 39:55 wasnt done by someone how was able to speak german! It should say "Der Deutsche Jagschutz-Verein". Also this organization didnt exist anymore as it was incorporated into the Deutsche Jägerschaft (as all hunting clubs were) in 1935. Im bewildered that none of the other german speakers here did take note of the spelling error....
Thank you, Ernö.
@@WittmannAntiqueMilitaria The Hirschfänger itself is surely original as you said. What do you think? Someone tried to double the price of a already very nice Hirschfänger by adding this engraving?
@ghgg No need to make it complicated... the inscription is fake. Period.
Hi witman i love your collection i am also a young collector i have some pictures of hitler in my collection
From 1939 and 1944
Thank you very much. Young collectors are the most valuable thing we have in this hobby!
Wittmann Antique Militaria i agree
These hunting knives are known as hangars, not cutlasses.. cutlasses are naval
Ещё бы русские субтитры Былбасовка огонь
These are great artifacts . You have one hell of a nice collection . Your german pronunciation is really bad though , hahaha ... oh well , not a biggie .
